    It’s because the venture capitalists who are sinking BILLION$ into these things are calling it AI even though it’s not and literally never will be. And unfortunately, too many people are too stupid to understand that these aren’t AI but Generative Adversarial Networks or GAN’s for short. Which doesn’t sound as sexy and “take my money please”-ish as Artificial Intelligence or ✨AI✨ does.

    These will never be HAL9000 or Jarvis or even Roku’s Basilisk. The stuff needed for that kind of “intelligence” doesn’t exist in these things. And the sooner people come to realize that this is all just digital snake oil the sooner we can collectively get on with our lives.

      Too many people are failing to understand that fqughds are actually woplels, and until they understand that, they are just going to keep wasting their money on 💫woplels💫.

      Even though woplels have proven to be useful for some things, they’re not as good as some people want them to be, so they’re useless.
